This perhaps may seem to some a great oversight and omission. But our Lord in great wisdom thought fit to give us a pattern of a quite different sort of life, which was, not to fly the conversation of men and to live in a monastery or a wilderness, but to do good among men, to live in the world with great freedom and with great innocence. He did indeed sometimes retire himself for the more free and private exercise of devotion, as we ought to do; but he passed his life chiefly in the conversation of men, that they might have all the benefit that was possible of his instruction and example We read that "he was carried into the wilderness to be tempted," but not that he lived there to avoid temptation. He hath given us an example of denying the world without leaving it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To measure the man, measure his heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46314]]></link><description><![CDATA[To measure the man, measure his heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taste is the feminine of genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58651]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taste is the feminine of genius.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58651</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deeper than did ever plummet sound I 'll drown my book. -The Tempest.
